The Android-x86 project is glad to announce 6.0-rc2 release to public. This is the second release candidate for Android-x86 6.0 (marshmallow-x86) stable release. The prebuilt images are available in the following site:

The 6.0-rc2 release is based on the latest Android Marshmallow-MR2 release (6.0.1_r61) with all AOSP security patches applied. We fixed a lot of issues found in the since 6.0-rc1 and added more features:

We created universal images for most x86 platforms. This release contains two files. One is the 32-bit x86 ISO and the other is the 64-bit x86_64 ISO. Both can be boot from legacy BIOS and newer UEFI firmware. You can choose one of them depends on your devices. In doubt, try the 32-bit ISO for legacy BIOS devices and 64-bit ISO for UEFI devices.

32-bit: android-x86-6.0-rc2.iso

For Linux users, just dump the iso into a usb drive to create a bootable usb stick like

$ dd if=android-x86-6.0-rc2.iso of=/dev/sdX

where /dev/sdX is the device name of your usb drive.

Windows's users can use the tool UNetbootin to create a bootable usb stick.
